Hot starting

Just wondering if the camaro geniuses here might have a clue as to what my car is doing.

I swapped my 305 tbi to a 350 a while back and used the tbi system (top end) from my 305. Same prom, everything. Now my cars been running great, but it doesnt seem to want to start very easily at all when it is ho. Starts everytime if it is cool/cold, but after running it for 30 mins or so, and shutting it off, it is very reluctant to start again. Turns over very sluggishly, almost sounds 'flooded'. When I finally get it to catch (which must be taking a toll on my starter, it smells a lot like fuel (also guessing flooded.) Any ideas what might be wrong, or what may possibly do to fix this? I need to get this done soon, as I have her up for sale.

thx

-Justin
